Bellatrix 34,639 Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 Now the songs from the second semi-final of Eesti Laul 2018 have been released! Who's your favorite to represent Estonia? http://esctoday.com/154769/estonia-semi-final-2-entries-eesti-laul-2018-published/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellatrix 34,639 Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 My hopes are on either Desiree, Stig Rästa or Ellis Pärna & Gerli Padar. I really like their songs so don't let me down Estonia Both Stig Rästa and Gerli Padar are familiar faces in the Eurovision world. Stig was one of the fan favorites in 2015 together with Elina Born and Gerli represented Estonia in 2007 and sadly missed the final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glittertinks 12,358 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Some news from your favorite country in the contest: Germany! Looks like we found the six contestants for the national selection. They will present their songs in February, where Germany will make the final decision of who we will send I recognize two of the artists, for the others I will have to do some research about. But it seems like they've chosen strong artists with some presence on the stage, unlike in the past years. Now I am curious about the songs and what they will come up with. http://esctoday.com/155304/germany-ndr-reveals-unser-lied-fur-lissabon-candidates/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellatrix 34,639 Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 To keep this thread alive, here's this years first Eurovision Throwback Thursday (and because I'm bored waiting for the oven to get heated up ) 10 years ago, 2008 was a special year. It was a year when the wind of changes stormed over Eurovision. The concept of two semi-finals was introduced and the juries came back. However, their role were pretty small. 9 of the finalists from each semi-final were decided by televoting and the 10th finalist was chosen by the juries. The final then still had 100% televoting. The contest was held in Belgrade, Serbia and Russia won for the first time thanks to Dima Bilan who returned after his 2nd place in 2006. Fun fact: 2008 also had the one of the most, if not the most, underrated entry in the history of Eurovision. (Yes it's a fact ) It was Sweden with the stunning Charlotte Perrelli. She was the fan favorite to win, but she only reached 12th place in the semi-final. However, the juries brought her to the final where she only reached 18th place and the heart of a 15 year old Charlotte fan (read: mine) was broken Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like someone caught the "fan-favorite"-curse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
